    Does anyone here have one of these?
    I will get the Note 4 when it comes out later this year and finally move away from the iPhone which seems to have stood still.
    The main reason for me changing from the iPhone is the ability on the "note" to be able to use their stylus to input hand written notes/sketches instead of always having to use infernal small on-screen "keyboards".

    Not the same I know, you are talking about the Galaxy note phone whereas my experience is with a Galaxy note tablet.

    A couple of months ago I upgraded from my version 1 Galaxy tab 7" tablet to a Galaxy note 3 8" wifi and 3g tablet.

    The stylus is very useful however I have never used it to take handwritten notes, I use it as a far faster and more precise way to type on the on-screen keyboard and navigate between screens.

    My handwriting is difficult enough to read, even when I use pen and ink.

    Ah, I didn't realise there was also a tablet, Dave.
    Yes, it is definitely the phone!

    Got a friend with the Note 3, toyed around with it a while back.

    All of the Galaxy notes are great phones, but for me the size is just too big. But then again, the size is why people flock for it, each to their own. But the software and hardware on them can't be faulted..

    Yeah, the phone is big but I can live with that to be able to input data / handwriting with the S-Pen.

    I suppose the size is a big factor, smaller the better but that is only because I need one to fit in a spanner pocket. I think the Galaxy Note 4 looks great, tablet like as mentioned but I have always loved the stylus compared with the keyboard as other members have said.

    I would have one of these phones if I had a man bag :D but then I would probably end up leaving the man bag in the pub.

    Good phone, great alternative to the I Phone, everyone as one of those, don't they?
